Rennen Gets Third “G” With Romero
Rennen Design Group has their share of “Gs” around the shop. There is the “Original G,” founder George Costa. And of course, their wildly-popular innovation, the G-Cog. And now, word from the coast is that another G is coming aboard. In a BMXNEWS scoop, George tells us that Coach Greg Romero will join Rennen Design Group as the head of sales and marketing for the G-Cog product line. An advance copy of the press release says:
Rennen Design Group is pleased to announce that highly-decorated BMX pro and coach, Greg Romero (Coach G) will join the company to specifically head up Sales and Marketing of G-Cog “The world’s first true BMX powermeter.” Greg brings over 28 years of BMX experience to the table, including an impressive pro racing and coaching resume. Most notable was his coaching of Team USA Olympic Medalists Mike Day and Jill Kintner. “Coach G” was hired by Kintner and Day (through Red Bull North America) to manage their performance programs and goals of qualifying for the Olympic games, and ultimately earning medals in Beijing.
George: “Coach G has a way to think laterally and his vast experience in racing and coaching at the highest level is unparalleled. We’re looking forward to plugging Greg into areas of the company where he can enhance the brand, the product, and the awareness of the G-Cog power meter. Specifically, one of Greg’s tasks will be creating an educational video series showing users not only how to install/use the device but also how it enhances and can quantify their training.”
Greg: “I am looking forward to being a part of such an innovative company and am very excited to help bring to light the usefulness of the G-Cog powermeter. As you may know, many top countries and BMX athletes are using powermeters to quantify and test their training and equipment. In the road and MTB industry, powermeters are the standard over heart rate monitoring systems and traditional speedometers. Having personal experience using other powermeter systems such as the SRM and Powertap, I believe that the G-Cog and the data that it renders is second to none. Rennen/G-Cog wants to grow and I am looking forward to not only being a part of the growth but to enhance key areas to make sure the growth plan is executed.”
Rennen Design Group will have a better west coast presence this year and individuals can find Greg at our booth at select races. He can also be reached directly at his email Greg@G-Cog.com
We at Rennen Design Group are excited about the addition of Coach G and we look forward to working with him to bring innovation and technology to BMX racing.
Congratulations to both parties for joining forces. BMXNEWS has the highest regard for both George, and his products, and for Coach G. We wish them the best in their new partnership.
As for his on-track colors, Greg will be rockin his Sun Brü colors for the foreseeable future, but capped off with the G-Cog helmet (just like the above shot from the ABA Grands).
